Trunk or wall?

[BigMikeQ 10+ year member]

I'm going with 3 Rockford T1's D2 but I'm trying to figure out which would hit the hardest, having the box in the trunk with the subs firing into the cab just behind the back seats or should I take out the back seats and just build a wall? I have a 2012 Buick Regal so I don't have much room for anything really.

What size are the subs?

12's, basically the box would be the entire size of my trunk minus 5 inches.

if the subs are going to be in the trunk, they need to fire AWAY from the cab.

A wall is almost always louder, however, keeping everything in the trunk is far more impressive if you can make it loud.

As for how to place the subs/port in a trunk setup, that would depend more on the space you have to work with as well as your desired goals. We do several front firing setups in trunk cars with great success. However, that is not always the best answer.

If I put them in the trunk they will have to fire into the cab. If I put the box in the trunk and have them firing away from the cab, I might have 3 inches away from the back of the trunk if I'm lucky.

Maybe they'll do this for next year and someone will actually be loud...

I'll text Fish and tell him to turn his box around. Since he's only doing 61's in 0-1,000w.

I'm predicting he turns box around and goes head to head with Butler and takes him out.

F USACI and their stupid 4ohm rating crap though, we both know Fish clamps like 14kw. Talked to him at finals for a while, very down to earth/cool person.

Highly doubt you have the room for 3 12s in the trunk. I personally wouldn't bother with a wall for 3 T1s.. Get 2 nice 12s in the trunk sealed off firing FORWARD.
